Hi everyone not been on for a while sorry.  Had my hysterectomy on 8th November had to be cut open properly but I’m not too bothered about that, surgeon said it went well and they did what they wanted to do.  Went back to the women’s today to see him again and he is happy with how I am doing and I have done everything they asked and the wound is heeling well.  Now I am waiting for my referral to clatterbridge for chemotherapy.

Hope you are all well

  • I have some enlarged lymph nodes in my pelvis that they aren’t sure if it’s cancer or not because they couldn’t take them out and when I had my CT scan there was a couple enlarged in my neck so they are playing it safe x

    Hi . Good to hear your recovery after surgery is going well. I'm starting chemo on Monday so my little bags packed with Soduko books, tablet, kindle, colouring books and fruit sweets.

    Had hair significantly chopped off yesterday and have 4 turbans at the ready. Just want to get started1

    Hugs, Barb xx

  • I’m not sure when I start probably soon I would imagine.  I’m a bit scared of what side effects I may have and not normally bothered about my hair but I don’t want to lose it, my mum and dad have bought me a hat for my birthday on Monday incase I do lose it.  I hope it goes well for you next week, I couldn’t believe it when I saw your post x
